Nutritional Supplements

In order to help facilitate a healthy, regenerative lifestyle, our physicians at Pacific Coast Sports Medicine recommend using only the finest nutritional supplements. We research products from a myriad of companies and select only those which meet and surpass industry standards. Our selection of companies and their products is continually being updated as new research emerges.

MediHerb is an herbal supplement company whose products are distributed by Standard Process. Driven by “efficacious herbal therapy,” MediHerb has been researching, developing, and manufacturing high quality herbal supplements for over 25 years. As said by MediHerb co-founder, professor, and Director of Research and Development Kerry Bone, “Our passion at MediHerb is to unlock the healing power of plants by combining the time-honored wisdom of traditional knowledge with sound clinical experience and the rigor of scientific research.” Over 20 naturopaths, three chemistry and biochemistry PhD’s, chemists, herbalists, and pharmacists at MediHerb devote their efforts to improving the health and wellness of patients via natural herbs and plants. At Pacific Coast Sports Medicine, our physicians strive to prescribe and recommend natural means such as MediHerb to suit your needs when applicable.

The nutritional supplements we use at PCSM are high quality and evidence-based. Bionics Research is one such company who regards innovative research as one of their top priorities. It is because of this drive for highly concentrated and pure supplements that we recommend this brand. Specifically, we choose to use their Vitamin K and Vitamin D supplements for bone density support.

Since 1929 and following Standard Process has been dedicated to the field of nutritional supplements and proper nutrition. They are also firm believers in the whole food philosophy introduced by Dr. Royal Lee. Whole food nutrition is important because it is the most direct way for us to receive the nutrients our bodies need. By ingesting nutrients that come from whole, intact fruits and vegetables–as opposed to isolated forms of vitamins and minerals–our cells can fully absorb and utilize hundreds of antioxidants and nutrients to help our bodies heal and regenerate healthy tissue. fruits

Standard Process offers many specific formulations for specific needs and conditions. They also offer packages of various Fundamentals that are sorted and placed in 60 small envelopes for ease of taking twice a day. These include General Health Daily, Bone Health, Adrenal Health and Female Endocrine Daily.

Omega-3’s are well known to be healthy and good for the cardiovascular system. However, it is often difficult to incorporate enough of the foods that include omega-3’s into our diets everyday. In an effort to assist our patients and improve their health, we use Nordic Natural’s fish oil supplements that consist of high quality omega-3’s. Nordic Naturals, one of the world’s leading suppliers of fish oil, was born in the arctic Norway 20 years ago. With the goal to correct the global omega-3 deficiency, they have made great strides in developing several patented technologies that fine-tune flavor, taste, and the processing of their fish oil. PCSM physicians recommend this fish oil because of its high concentration of omega-3’s as well as the level of its purity and freshness.
